[0002] Laser cutting machines still have some problems during the cutting process, especially the large amount of waste chips and thermal effects generated when cutting workpieces, which have a particularly significant impact on processing quality and efficiency. In the traditional processing flow, the workpiece is directly placed on the support plate for positioning, which seems direct and simple, but it hides hidden dangers. Especially when processing workpieces with cavity structures, if the cavity is directly in contact with the support plate facing down. On the one hand, the high temperature generated by laser cutting is concentrated on the workpiece, which can easily cause the bottom of the workpiece to deform due to heat, especially on the support plate material with poor heat conduction, the hot zone expands, affecting the dimensional accuracy and shape stability of the workpiece. On the other hand, the waste chips generated in the cutting cavity are difficult to discharge smoothly and accumulate in the cavity, which not only hinders the continuous cutting path of the laser beam, but also may damage the equipment, affect the cleanliness of the cutting surface, and increase the difficulty of later cleaning.

[0040] Reference Figure 1~Figure 4 , which is the first embodiment of the utility model, proposes

[0041] Laser cutting automatic positioning device, including:

[0042] Rack 100;

[0043] A support frame 200 is disposed on the frame 100 and is used to support the workpiece and separate the workpiece from the debris after the support;

[0044] The tool 300 is movably arranged on the frame 100 , and is used to cut the workpiece after being moved.

[0045] In this embodiment, in order to solve the problems in the related art of directly placing the workpiece on the support plate, which will increase thermal deformation and heat-affected zone, and inconvenience in chip removal, the frame 100, as the main structure of the device, provides a stable installation platform. The frame 100 is the foundation of the entire system, ensuring the stability and durability of the device and providing installation space for subsequent components. The support frame 200 is on the frame 100, used to directly carry the workpiece, ensure the stability of the workpiece, provide accurate support for the processing process, and avoid the movement or deformation of the workpiece. At the same time, the support frame 200 is designed to separate the workpiece from the debris area, effectively isolate the heat influence, and reduce thermal deformation and debris interference.

[0046] The cutter 300 is movably arranged on the frame 100. The cutter 300 is configured as a laser cutting head or a laser emission source, a moving mechanism, and the cutter 300 accurately moves according to the instruction to cut the workpiece, thereby realizing automatic cutting. This embodiment optimizes the laser cutting process, ensures high cutting efficiency and workpiece processing accuracy, and reduces human operation errors.

[0047] Further, the frame 100 has a transverse guide rail 110 and a longitudinal guide rail 120, and the support frame 200 includes:

[0049] There are a plurality of second sliding members 220 , which are slidably disposed on the longitudinal guide rails 120 . After the plurality of second sliding members 220 and the plurality of first sliding members 210 are moved away from each other, they are used to clamp the workpiece.

[0050] In this embodiment, the frame 100 is additionally provided with a transverse guide rail 110 and a longitudinal guide rail 120. This design provides precise guidance for the sliding member of the support frame 200. The first sliding members 210 are respectively slidably arranged on the transverse guide rail 110.

There are also a plurality of second sliding members 220, which are arranged on the longitudinal guide rail 120. After the second sliding members 220 slide away from each other, the width adjustment of different workpieces is provided. The linkage with the first sliding member 210 realizes the adjustment of three-dimensional space, and the fastening of the workpiece is more comprehensive. Through the coordinated operation of the first sliding member 210 and the second sliding member 220, dynamic adjustment is realized, and the adaptability of the workpiece size is enhanced. Regardless of the width or length, accurate positioning can be achieved through the simple sliding of the sliding member, ensuring the fastening of the workpiece, and improving the flexibility and precision of processing.

[0051] Further, the first sliding member 210 and the second sliding member 220 each include:

[0052] A sliding seat 221, slidably disposed on the transverse guide rail 110 or the longitudinal guide rail 120;

[0053] A support column 222, the bottom end of which is disposed on the sliding seat 221;

[0054] The support block 223 is disposed on the top of the support column 222 and is used to support the workpiece.

[0055] In this embodiment, the sliding seat 221 is slidably arranged on the transverse guide rail 110 or the longitudinal guide rail 120. The arrangement of the sliding seat 221 provides a basis for sliding and ensures smooth sliding. The support column 222 is arranged on the sliding seat 221.

[0059] Furthermore, it also includes:

[0060] The first blocking piece 500 is disposed on the sliding seat 221 . The cross-sectional area of ​​the first blocking piece 500 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the sliding seat 221 , and covers the sliding seat 221 .

[0061] Also includes:

[0062] The second blocking piece 600 is disposed on the supporting column 222 . The cross-sectional area of ​​the second blocking piece 600 is greater than the cross-sectional area of ​​the first blocking piece 500 , and covers the first blocking piece 500 .

[0063] In this embodiment, the first baffle 500 is designed on the sliding seat 221. The first baffle 500 prevents debris from getting stuck in the gap between the sliding seat 221 and the transverse guide rail 110, which reduces the debris stuck in the guide rail, protects the guide rail, ensures the smoothness of the sliding parts, and improves the long-term stability and maintenance efficiency of the system. The second baffle 600 is set on the support column 222 to prevent debris from entering the transverse guide rail 110 and the longitudinal guide rail 120. The second baffle 600 is set to further ensure that the debris will not interfere with the normal movement of the guide rail, ensure the smoothness of the longitudinal guide rail 120, and optimize the cleanliness and continuity of operation of the device.

[0064] Furthermore, the first blocking piece 500 and the second blocking piece 600 are both threadedly disposed on the supporting column 222 .

[0065] In this embodiment, the first baffle 500 and the second baffle 600 are threadedly arranged on the support column 222. This design, through the threaded connection method, not only fixes the baffle on the support column 222, but also provides the possibility of adjustment. The threaded design allows the baffle to be fine-tuned and corrected according to actual use conditions, thereby improving the adaptability and effect of the first baffle 500 and the second baffle 600. In this embodiment, the first baffle 500 and the second baffle 600 are fixed to the support column 222 through the threads, which not only stabilizes the installation of the first baffle 500 and the second baffle 600, but also provides flexibility of adjustment, facilitates maintenance and optimization, and ensures adaptability for long-term use.

[0066] Furthermore, the support block 223 is slidably disposed at the top of the support column 222, and the support block 223 has a slide groove 224, and the slide groove 224 has a plurality of slots 225 disposed at intervals, and further includes:

[0067] The card block 700 is slidably disposed in the card slot 225;

[0068] The elastic member 800 has one end disposed on the clamping block 700 and the other end disposed in the clamping slot 225 . The elastic member 800 is used to provide a force for the clamping block 700 to slide out of the clamping slot 225 .

[0069] Also includes:

[0070] There are a plurality of wiping members 900 , which are respectively disposed on a plurality of supporting blocks 223 . The wiping members 900 are slidably disposed on the longitudinal guide rail 120 and the transverse guide rail 110 .

[0071] In this embodiment, the support block 223 is not only slidably arranged at the top of the support column 222, but also has a slide groove 224, which is arranged at intervals. The design of the slide groove 224 makes the support block 223 slide more flexibly on the support column 222, and increases the adjustment range. The block 700 is slidably arranged in the slot 225, and one end of the elastic member 800 is fixed on the block 700, and the other end is in the slot 225. The introduction of the elastic member 800 provides a sliding rebound force for the block 700, so that the block 700 clamps the support column 222. Several wipers 900 are correspondingly arranged on several support blocks 223, and the wipers 900 are slidably arranged on the longitudinal guide rail 120 and the transverse guide rail 110. The wipers 900 are designed to not only slide with the support block 223, but also clean the guide rails during sliding, reduce the retention of debris, and improve the cleanliness and maintainability of the device.
